Not a Photojojo

It's a couple of days before Christmas and I went to a restaurant to meet a friend to deliver the xmas boxes I made for her. I looked over my shoulder and saw this geocaching box on the counter. Do you know about geocaching? It's a cool activity I was introduced to several years ago.

I think it may have been invented by the companies that make GPS units. You use a GPS and the Geocaching.com website to locate these geocache boxes. When you find them, kind of an adult treasure hunt, you open the box to find all sorts of goodies. You can leave a goodie and take one.

Here's a little guy that I could have taken if I'd had something to leave.


Now with the advent of really good GPS features on the iPhone, you can of course find a geocaching app. I'm going to download one soon and start geocaching with my friends. I will be on a quest for little plastic animals that I'm starting to collect in the bowl in my front hallway.

Sometimes (usually) there are little notebooks in the box that you can use to leave a little note about your experience. I like this one: I think Monty is tiring of dating Lillie, or the restaurant, or both.
